@Isolar both if you have the chance please. The picture @SaintLaurent posted is helpful.

I'm just curious how you guys tuck in your shirts cuz I always feel like my shirts bag out a lot when I tuck them in, though my shirts aren't oversized. Maybe it's something that just takes some getting used to.

I think it all depends on your build (hips, shoulders, etc).

I used to hate bagged out shirts too until Hedi said it was okay

Anybody have the Suede L17 w/ fringes? Been looking to see it in a fit for ages. This one for reference-

What was the fragrance they used to pump out in the Dior Homme stores? 10 years later and I can still remember it

Would a size 75 belt fit a 27/28 waist?

Here are some pics of the western belt, as well as a look I posted a while back:

Like I said, I think it's a fantastic belt, and I think the smooth calf is definitely the way to go. It's the perfect balance between something modern and something more vintage-inspired. Plus I've never been a fan of faux, animal-imprinted calf, like the croc-embossed version.


As for colognes, I mostly go for something by Creed or Czech & Speake. I think it's an interesting question that I'm not sure has ever come up here, but at the same time, scent is so unique to a person that I don't think it can—or should—be standardized. It's nice to have some individuality, even when dressed head-to-toe in Saint Laurent wares. You want to stand out in same way when you're one of three guys wearing the same varsity jacket or something, right?

hedi tapped francois kurkdjian to design the dior homme fragrances iirc, not "dior homme" but eau noir, bois argent, and one more i can't remember. eau noir was pretty amazing, very intense though.

that was long before kurkdjian launched his own line, i think now it's easily the closest thing to what was intended for the dior homme fragrances. modern but in a neoclassical way, not a futurist way a la cdg. totally pared back like an L01.

the suede jacket isn't an L17, it fits a bit smaller.

As far as wearing a black belt with blue jeans and cigar boots, I don't really see the problem, especially if the top-half is black. A brown belt wouldn't match the boots anyway, and I don't think a tan belt would look very good. I generally disregard the rule unless I'm wearing dark brown shoes, which is very rare.

I remember seeing some picture of a guy wearing 3 passant belt, blue trashed and cigar boots with a white tee and L01...that's a while ago when on google and I couldn't find it anymore lol
It didn't look bad at all. I might pull the trigger on 3 passant and western belt soon.....I blame you for tempting me with the pictures haha

Go for it @onlyslp. I have both and I wear them everyday. I have the gunmetal 3 passant belt and now I am wondering if I should also cop the shiny silver tone one

 

[onlyslp]

The western belt for women is the same as the one for men right?

 

[therattler]

womens belts are generally a little bit thinner.

It's the same I have the women's version

yes, its the exact same size, i ordered mine from ssense in 85 and its the same length as my 3 passant in 85

this is true for the 3 passant, not the western
